This was really card for me to make a big card and get out of my comfort zone color wise. The really hard part was figuring out how to resize and upload it, I spent almost all day cussing & cussing. I am extremely computer unfriendly. ( I know Anne, problem in chair- LOL )
The ribbon was easy poke some holes and push it through. I popped out the rhinestones from the metal on brads.

Look at you Peggy-Sue! Three challenges in one and your ribbon weaving is lovely. Beautiful coloring as per the usual ... and you rock at oversized cards (I find that so funny as I can rarely fit anything on an A-2 card ... almost all of my cards are oversized!). Please feel free to stay out of your comfort zone, eh? Love it!

Peggy-Sue, you did a FANTASTIC job on this card. I love seeing different size cards. It takes a different part of your brain to use different sizes I think. You certainly mastered it and the challenges at the same time. Love that ribbon weave, flowers and bling!! Hang in there on the computer thing as we want to keep seeing your beautiful cards!!! Great job!!!

Take it easy over there, will you please? Just look at what you went and created for all those challenges! Yikes, I'm almost beside myself just trying to image how people like you can create small cards! I do everything big, unfortunately, but I've always admired how anyone can make small cards. I see Divine Ms M made a comment about the size of her cards: She's right, she does everything in gigantic size. You and her are sure artists no matter what size you guys use.
this is so totally wonderful. Yes, I can definitely see the problem is in the chair and not the computer! I can barely see this .. it's hard for me to see all its beauty. I do have an imagination though, so I know it's simply gorgeous...just like you!
